+1

Only time I used initramfs was on a desktop and that was while testing
a quirky lvm/raid setup that wouldn't boot without mdadm doing some
assembly *before* the main root filesystem became available. That was
never production quality though and all my servers run either off a HW
RAID card or boot from a SAN.
